Short answer: No, for a default set, or one that's already on PBW, you don't need to upload a shipset.
Long answer:
I wouldn't particularly recommend packing in the Amon'krie AI in a shipset uploaded for Proportions, unless you expect the AI to get to do a lot of design, research and construction.
For purposes of ministers or AI takeover... I'm not sure how PBW works. I assume you could include AI files in your shipset that you upload to PBW, and then
if your EMP file has "use ministers from style" instead of the default "ministers use selected style", then I would assume PBW would use those AI files from your ship set.
If you don't include AI files, or if you use a "selected minister style" in your EMP setup, then PBW should use the default Proportions AI's, which should be adequate. I don't think they're partcularly worse than the Amon'krie AI - the main improvements in Proportions' Amon'krie set are that it has some more-tweaked ship designs and building and research queues, which mainly help when letting the AI run an empire for a prolonged period.
